CEE investment volumes remained high in 2019, with the year closing at €13.7bn, just short of the record-breaking 2018 level, according to Colliers International. The majority of the capital was invested in Poland. Poland is a major target for international capital, with investment volumes in 2019 accounting for 55 percent of the CEE total. The Czech Republic followed with a 24-percent share and Hungary with 13 percent. Elsewhere in the region, volumes fell short of the volumes reported in 2018 and 2017. Despite record-low yields in most markets and sectors, some further yield compression is anticipated over the next 12 months as strong levels of capital seek product and returns.
